Great on a dry day

The ever so slightly smaller summit of High Willhays, Yes Tor feels grander due to the large granite outcrop. Standing beside the triangulation point atop of Yes Tor offers beautiful views in all directions. A must climb if hiking with the Meldon area.

Highest point of Devon and Southern England at 621m, accesible form various routes within the area. Although not as grand or striking as other Tors in the area such as Yes, Great Links or West Mills it offers beautiful 360 degree views in all directions.

A beautiful section of route 27 Granite Way where the trail opens up as you pass across the Meldon Viaduct. Views across show the undulating hills of the highest area within Dartmoor National park where High Willhays and Yes Tor are situated.

High Willhays is the highest point but it’s neighbour yes tor always feels somewhat grander, for a steep descent and climb head down past fordsland ledge into the okemont valley and back up to kitty tor

Meldon Reservoir was constructed in the 1970s to supply water to the surrounding area. The car park by the dam offers good access to the high tors of north Dartmoor. Run across the dam and up onto the moor or along the enjoyable lakeside trail.

The highest point of both Dartmoor and southern England!

Great to include on a hike or run, or even cycle. Great views of the valley and reservoir/dam

High Willhays is the highest point in the south west and just bests it's neighbour Yes Tor, I like approaching from the okemont drop, coming from kitty tor down and up via fordsland ledge. An absolute beast of a run or hike up

At 2,031 feet (619 m) Yes Tor is lower than neighbouring High Willhays, but it's arguably the better summit. The rocky summit tor is topped with a trig point, military shelter box and a flag pole used to mark when the range is in use. It's a great viewpoint in the northwestern edge of Dartmoor and a brilliant run destination.

At 2,037 feet (621 m) High Willhays is the highest point of Dartmoor National Park, and also the highest point in England, south of the Peak District. High Willhays is two metres higher than nearby Yes Tor, but not as prominent or rocky. It's a brilliant run from Okehampton, Meldon Reservoir or from a wilder direction across the moor.

A rocky, paved ford which passes through the East Okement River and the Black-a-ven Brook.

Pretty ford crossing over East Okement River.

Good view of the dam from here

The higher part of the park but slightly underwhelming in comparison to Yes Tor or Great Links Tor. A must to visit though and the nearby Fordsland Ledge boasts a stunning view of the Okemont Valley.

One of my favourite tors on the park for prominence and height. Feels more impressive than it's slightly greater neighbour hill willhays.

Take the ford or the bridge, depending on how dry you want your feet to stay. This is an old military road so the ford was once used by gun carriages. You can see the remnants of the paving on either side of the water. It also makes a lovely wild swimming spot if you are looking to combine both running and dipping.

This is the start/end of the loop via Black A Tor

When pitching up on Yes Tor always look at the wind profile and find a pitch as sheltered as possible. It can be an absolute wind tunnel when it wants to.
